I picked this book up earlier this year at the Carlisle Import Show.
It is an expensive book but it has some good photos and is a great restoration 
guide.

However today I found an error in the book on page 40 regarding the Bugeye 
bonnet struts.
The author states "The bonnet was held in the open positions by two 
nickel-plated struts.."

I am quite certain the struts were not nickel plated, but instead they were 
zinc (or maybe cadmium) plated.

I just wanted to mention this in case somebody out there was contemplating 
the expense of getting their struts nickel plated.  

I am also curious as to any other errors that others may have discovered in 
this book.
